The SF Cherry Blossom Festival is having its 50th year. This is one of California’s most prominent celebrations of Asian traditions and the biggest on the West coast.

There will be food, cultural performances, martial arts, live bands, the annual Queen Program, and more. The Grand Parade will be held on Sunday, April 16, beginning at 1 PM at SF City Hall and concluding in Japantown.

Each year, over 200,000 people attend this showcase of the color and grace of the Japanese culture and the diversity of the Japanese American Community.
